July 4 closings

You might be off for the Independence Day weekend, but not your local grocery clerk. And while you might be tempted to do some frolicking in the sprinkler during your July 4 celebration, remember that watering restrictions aren't taking a holiday either.

The following are July 4 hours for key services and businesses, in case you run out provisions during the annual celebration, or just need a reminder about what's shut down on Tuesday:

GROCERY STORES:

Bi-Lo: Open 7 a.m. to 11 p.m.

Food Lion: Open 24 hours.

Harris Teeter: Open 7 a.m. to 12 a.m.

Bells: Open at 8 a.m. instead of 7:30; close at 9 p.m. instead of 9:30.

No classes will be held and all offices will be closed on Monday and Tuesday. Monday normally wouldn't be one of the 12 holidays UGA takes during the calendar year. But since Jan. 1 fell on a Saturday this year, UGA has designated only 11 holidays for the calendar year, and Tuesday will be the 12th day.
